Rear brake drum/wheel cylinder is an 8mm. For the front caliper bleed screw use a 3/8".
Seems like a 10mm ought to work but it is just loose enough to round off the corners on a tight bleed screw. [:@]

Which brake bleeder screw are you having trouble with? Is it siezed up or just rounded off? Why are you needing to bleed the brake system anyway?

WELL.. i am trying to bleed the brakes because my d/s flex hose went rendering me brakeless in a snowstorm. YEAH I KNOW, IT SUCKED. so we had to replace that, THEN, the other sides flex hose went rendering me brakeless on the highway. But there is air in the lines causeing my driverside brakes to be stuck on, wrecking my rotors. It is not fun. We also tried to replace the ball-joint last night and the Spindel broke. See why I'd never own one of these again? CRAP.
Anyways we tried heating the friggers up, nothing, beating on them, nothing, NOTHING WORKS TO GET THEM OUT. I don't know what to do.
